			== Metal wall / metal cube ==

			I don't think this article mentions the metal cubes which the walls are made of. These metal cubes are truly cubes, for the weighted storage cube and other cubes are actually cuboids.

			Here are the metal cube textures:
			* small: https://ia801508.us.archive.org/27/items/portaltexturerocksliqmetal/metalwall2.png, https://ia801508.us.archive.org/27/items/portaltexturerocksliqmetal/metalwall1.png

			* large: https://ia801508.us.archive.org/27/items/portaltexturerocksliqmetal/metalwall2_lrg.png, https://ia801508.us.archive.org/27/items/portaltexturerocksliqmetal/metalwall1_lrg.png

			The metal cubes are also movable objects that you can interact with in some parts of the video game ''Portal''. --[[User:User000name\|User000name]] ([[User talk:User000name\|talk]]) 04:17, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
